28: Gravity Falls "The Golf War"

12/22/21 • 56 min

Charley and Ella are visited by the Spittle Man himself, Adam New (voice actor and our audio cleaner-upper!) to discuss "The Golf War," which we argue is appropriate for Christmas. We talk the absurd amount of guest voices in the episode, the evolving relationship of Mabel and Pacifica, and the mysteries of mini-golf.
